Subject[patch 12/41] nfsd: Ensure nfsv4 calls the underlying filesystem on LOCKT
2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

commit 55ef1274dddd4de387c54d110e354ffbb6cdc706 upstream.

Since nfsv4 allows LOCKT without an open, but the ->lock() method is a
file method, we fake up a struct file in the nfsv4 code with just the
fields we need initialized. But we forgot to initialize the file
operations, with the result that LOCKT never results in a call to the
filesystem's ->lock() method (if it exists).

We could just add that one more initialization. But this hack of faking
up a struct file with only some fields initialized seems the kind of
thing that might cause more problems in the future. We should either do
an open and get a real struct file, or make lock-testing an inode (not a
file) method.

This patch does the former.
